Property Description
Welcome to 433 Pacific Street, a beautifully well-preserved two-family treasure offered for the first time in over 25 years. Rich with original detail and lovingly cared for, this soulful, light-filled home exudes warmth and character. Laid out with an owner's duplex on the parlor and garden levels, and an additional duplex apartment occupying the third and fourth floors, this mid-block beauty is as elegant as she is whimsical--and income-producing as well! However, those who want to convert the property to a magnificent single family or restore the original layout as an owner's triplex and separate garden apartment, can do so easily thanks to the seller's thoughtful, conversion-conscious renovation.
Located on one of the most quintessential tree-lined blocks in Boerum Hill's Historic District, the approach to this 1856 home is everything one looks for in townhouse living: attractive Italianate architecture, Doric pilasters, handsome red brick, and a charming front-facing garden enclosed behind a cast iron gate.
Upon entering the building, which is an impressive 21-feet wide and 42' deep, you're instantly struck by the parlor level's 11'4" ceiling heights. It's here that you enter the owner's duplex which opens to a time capsule of grace from a bygone era. In the south-facing living area, original mouldings and intricate ceiling medallions perch tastefully above two stately marble fireplaces and ten inch-wide knotty pine floors (present throughout the home), while original etched pocket doors lead to a spacious dining room and kitchen overlooking the lush, rear garden.
Downstairs, the south-facing guest bedroom features exposed brick, ample closet space, a decorative fireplace and adjacent full bathroom in the hall. North through charming arched thresholds, you enter the primary suite replete with a small alcove office, wood-burning stove, a tin ceiling, an en-suite windowed bath and unbridled access to the 48-foot garden festooned with a mix of mature evergreens and flowering shrubs. Waking up never looked so pretty! From this level you can access Pacific Street through the garden level entry and also the cellar, which is the full footprint of the house bearing endless storage. The cellar is also equipped with a washer/dryer.
Up the gently curving staircase and approached from the third floor, the upper level duplex offers spacious accommodations with authentic personality. Configured as a 3 BR/2 BA + study, the duplex's lower level boasts a generously-scaled, light-filled living room with a wood-burning fireplace, a large renovated eat-in kitchen with its own working fireplace and a full bathroom. On the upper level are three gracious bedrooms, ample closet space, a full windowed bathroom with washer/dryer and a crowning stairwell skylight that illuminates the upper floors and staircase below.
433 Pacific Street was once part of an area referred to as Washington Place for its association to George Washington's attempt to defend Brooklyn and later Manhattan during the Revolutionary War. When the block was rebuilt in the 1800s as a cluster of row houses by Brooklyn developers, John Doherty & Michael Murray, front gardens were added to memorialize the neighborhood's history. At the turn of the century, an influx of immigrants from Ireland, Italy and Germany converted many of the properties into multi-family dwellings, mindful not to alter the handsome exteriors which define the area's beauty today. Over the years, Boerum Hill has grown into a diverse community of New Yorkers who relish the charming tree-lined streets, friendly neighborhood appeal and modern conveniences. Within a few blocks are numerous restaurants, cafes, shops, services, schools and countless public transit options to include the A,B,C,D,F,G,N,R,Q, 2,3, and 4,5 subway lines.
Don't miss this opportunity to own a piece of Brooklyn history while making your own!
